New to Tome need some help!

#1 Post by TJE »

Hi everyone! First off let me just say that I love tome! So hopefully ill be on the message board a good amount here in the future :) Now I have a few quick questions any help would be VERY appreciated

1) farthest character lvl 25 lich. Ok so Ive never got a guy this far and something fusterating happened. Somehow (bug or keyboard error on my part) All my catagory talent points got spent of Nature and the survial catagory. Ok so very fusterating cause i was saving them all up (i had three) now Im pretty hosed. I figured i could use the cheat to unlearn them but on the wiki it only gives a few examples of cheats and i cant find a list anywhere. Of the cheats that it lists it says you can add talents by using game.player:learnTalent(game.player.T_SLASH, true, 1). Unfortunatly this is only slash and whenever i try to add a talent (healing light for example replacing the above mentioned with game.player:learnTalent(game.player.T_HEALINGLIGHT, true, 1) but i get a "attempt to index local "t" nil value. And it doesnt work. So ya i gues my question is this. is there anyway to unlearn those category talent points with the debug or is there a talent list i can choose from to learn the talents i want. (then i just wont spend the talent points in game to make sure im not cheating and keep track)

2) Do the advanced minions for necromancer/lich suck? They dont seem to trigger the special abilities and they dont hit very hard (lichs excluded but they roast you and your minions) They just dont seem to proc any of there abilities and they hit really low damage. It quite a talent investment beyond the regular skeleton/ghoul investment ive already made and im not sure it was worth it. Is leveling up bone golem to level 5 better?

3) how can i donate a singe not reoccuring donation and is there any chance of getting a VAMPIRE race in the next expac :)

Thank you all soo much for your help and I look forward to seeing all of you on here!

You had three category points saved!? Why were you saving them? You're supposed to spend those as you get them, on inscriptions or new categories usually. I can't really think of a good reason for saving them for that long, don't do that.

I don't know anything about cheat mode, but in the future if you accidentally click on categories you don't want, you can take the points back out by right clicking as long as you didn't leave the level up screen. When leaving the screen it also asks you if you want to save changes, so you could have just said no there as well.

Advanced minions kinda do suck, yeah. So do bone giants. Just focus on your regular minions and spells. Also note that dark empathy protects you from your minions' spells if you max it.

I think you mean class points, not category points. If you want more class points, use:

Code: Select all

 game.player.unused_talents = game.player.unused_talents + 1
If you want more category points, use:

Code: Select all

game.player.unused_talents_types = game.player.unused_talents_types + 1

The proper name is T_HEALING_LIGHT, which should solve that problem. Most of the talents names are just moved to uppercase, and have their spaces replaced with underscores, but a few rare ones are completely different.

To unlearn a talent, use:

Code: Select all

game.player:unlearnTalent(game.player.T_SLASH, true, 1)
There isn't a good list of commands available, partly because it would be unbelievably huge if it was comprehensive.
Some of my tools for helping make talents:
Melee Talent Creator
Annotated Talent Code (incomplete)

I did mean category points. I didnt know if i would need them later for unlocking classes. turns out starfall come with being a lich and you dont have to spend on them :)

Its to bad minions arnt that great, I really liked the ideea of having lich's and vampires, maybe in the next version they will make the necro have better "necro" like options. Or is there items or something i could do to make them better?

Thanks for all the really good help guys awesome game :)
